Den-Den Chin-Don, Robot Parade, Chomorrow Parade

"Chomorrow," a glimpse into a fascinating future, is currently underway!

Yesterday's opening kicked off with the Denden Chindon, Robot Parade, and Chomorrow Parade!

A fusion of Japan’s traditional chindon culture and technology (AI composition, vocaloid lyric writing, and digital signage videos)

A futuristic take on traditional performing arts through street performances.

And then, kids, adults, robots, and superheroes—everyone parades through the streets together!

To be honest, it felt like the adults had completely gone along with the middle school students’ planning and production proposal, but it turned out to be even more of a hit than we expected.

It was great to see the sense of unity among the organizing team, exhibitors, and participants!

We actually received a proposal for this as a nighttime cyber event, so we'll be holding it today starting at 6:30 p.m.!

We hope both Chomorrow and Dendenchin-don will join us!
